Looks like we are in for more snow and strong wind gusts starting tonight. If you can, stay at home. If you do have to drive, make sure your vehicle is cleaned off, washer fluid filled, phone charged, and have your emergency kit in your vehicle! #BePrepared
9-8-8 is proud to be one of the 25 mental health organizations and services featured in #BellLetsTalk Day this year. We are grateful to Bell for their support and for promoting both our service and suicide prevention in Canada.
